However, we must remember that those people have had not even one CS semester, so maybe it will be better if the upcoming talk was a talk which does not require any background, and is yet a technical talk (newcomers do not need persuasion - they need an intro to the club).<br>

<br>
The orientation day will take place this Thursday, between<br>
10:00-15:00, where there is a real need between 12:00-15:00.<br>
<br>
We need two types of volunteers:<br>
1. Producing the flyers - design something quick and dirty (maybe<br>
based on W2L or such), and then duplicating them.<br>
<br>
We have very little time, so if you think you can duplicate 2,000<br>
flyers (or some of them), please let me know how many you can take<br>
care of, and how the ones you have can be taken from you.<br>
<br>
If you design one - please keep in mind that it may be wise to have a<br>
flyer which can be used next orientation day, by the GSO, etc.<br>
<br>
In other words: plain simple, come to haifux, home of Linux and FOSS<br>
in Haifa, or something like that (if no one will raise their hands by<br>
tomorrow evening, I will be forced to design one such myself using<br>
open office!).<br>
<br>
2. Standing in the sun for as long as you can (whenever you can) and<br>
give these flyers away, and talk people into attending haifux<br>
meetings.<br>
<br>
Starting time 11:30. The longer the better. However, even if you<br>
cannot stand there for an hour, even half an hour, 15 minutes, or even<br>
5, would be great.<br>
<br>
For volunteers: please try to find in your closet a nice (i.e., still<br>
wearable, no holes, not 10 sizes too large/small) Haifux-related<br>
T-shirt.<br>
<br>
And unfortunately, we have to do this quickly, so please raise your<br>
hands as fast as you can :)<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
